We appreciate so much all the church community of Heilig Hart for their warm acceptance, love, concern and encouragement these past 15 years of sharing their parish space with them. A sharing that went beyond physical space to the fraternal communion of the faithful in Christ. In a special manner, we thank the Parish Priest Fr Kenny, Fr Macin and the kerkfabriek for their outstanding contributions, agape and help towards the growth of our community. We are very grateful. We also thank the church community of Onze Lieve Vrouw Boodschap for opening the doors of their church and their hearts for us.
